Scoring chances, Game 5: Philadelphia Flyers at Ottawa Senators

The Flyers were absolutely dominant throughout the first period of this game, outchancing the Senators 9-1 and taking a 4-0 lead thanks to the Senators taking multiple penalties where the Flyers generated five chances on the powerplay. It is worth noting here that Matt Read’s individual effort goal doesn’t qualify as a scoring chance as it falls outside the scoring chance zone (see below). Shots from that area should be routine saves for NHL goalies (sorry Alex!) and so aren’t counted as a chance. The Flyers sat back in the second period and ended up being outchanced 4-7 and allowed a goal at the end of the period to Jason Spezza. The Flyers led the chances in the third 9-6, with the final chance total ending 22-14 and a 15-11 advantage at even strength.

Best ES forward: Briere, Simmonds +5
Worst ES forward: Talbot, Rinaldo, Zolnierczyk -2
Best ES defender: Pronger +6
Worst ES defender: Coburn, Timonen -1

A scoring chance is defined as a clear play directed toward the opposing net from a dangerous scoring area — loosely defined as the top of the circle in and inside the faceoff dots, though sometimes slightly more generous than that depending on the amount of immediately-preceding puck movement or screens in front of the net.

Blocked shots are generally not included but missed shots are. A player is awarded a scoring chance anytime he is on the ice and someone from either team has a chance to score. He is awarded a “chance for” if someone on his team has a chance to score and a “chance against” if the opposing team has a chance to score.
